Epic Closeups...

[Pawel Achtel]

Not renders. Pictures of the real thing.

He was kidding, David :ihih: Yeah, it looks very promising.

 

[Lucas Wilson]

Thanks for the pics Lucas ... much appreciated.

Is the weight of the Epic REALLY less than the RedOne ?!?!?! Looks like it could be the same by the time all the bits are onboard ...

The weight of the stacked unit that Jarred had is about exactly the weight of a RED ONE. I was impressed.

lucas..did you have the completely stacked up epic (many modules) in the hands? the interlocking mechanism looks a little like on a hasselblad mag. does it wobble a little or is it completely rigid? thanx for letting me know

Rigid.

Will it Blend ?

 

[Pietro Impagliazzo]

Scarlet is getting closer...

 

[Steven Caesare]

Sooo... the Redmote's are slightly differing desgns (# of buttons, layouts, etc...)

I also notice the one mounted on the mac of the camera seems to be slightly narrower than the EPIC module it's pggy-backing on to.

And it APPEARS that the Redmote that's being hand-held has a slightly wider aspect ratio.

Are we seeing mix-n-match Scarlet and Epic Redmotes?

PS- These pics and the new announcement are insanely cool.

There is only one REDMOTE. As far as I am aware, at least - the DSMC system is supposed to be modular, so you could upgrade from Scarlet to Epic and keep all your modules.

Two more...

Lucas

The second pic isn't the Bomb EVF, so RED Sight must be the name of the OVF!

Hmmm...curiouser & curiouser...

 

[Pietro Impagliazzo]

No cameras there?!

C'mon, give us some more photos!

And with no crappy forum compression please .

Looking at the Redmote makes me wonder:
Is it going to display a picture from the camera or just a control screen/menu?

Look at the pices. The one on the EPIC and the one in somebody's hand both say "REDMOTE", yet they are different:


On Cam:

• Narrower (?)
• 3 buttons below left corner of LCD (M1, M2, M3)
• lower left button labeled "BACK"

Handheld:

• Wider(?)
• 2 buttons blow lower left of LCD (Menu, Back)
• lower left button labeled "SLEEP"

Subtle stuff like not having colored lettering or buttons I'm not counting.

So there is more than one REDMOTE design in existence. Question is, are they protypes leading up to one final product, or are there going to be different flavors?

Sexy Sexy. Love seeing the OVF and REDmote powered up.

But they are very similar...
Maybe just two different mock-ups?

Good eyes Steven!

Ya, that's what I'm wondering.

The "old" pics from the RedUser party a few months back with the "silver" prototypes also showed a REDMOTE that was also slightly narrower than the back of the EPIC it was attached to.

This is the first time I've seen a design that appears wider... altho I can't be sure as it's being held. Sure looks like it tho.

I'm drooling so bad that it's not even funny... gotta save gotta save..
The hand-hold strap.. does it have to be made out of that material? Not sure what that material is but, it looks like it came from a DV camera. Besides that, AWESOME!

ha ha we bought that side strap from Adorama for $8... there are tabs on the handle to use any side strap you have that will fit.. but this one is not a RED product..

I think if that guy did one of those episodes with the new Reds the following episode would be everyone from Reduser sticking him in a blender.

That Bomb EVF looks a lot like the new Arri EVF (in terms of size). An boy is that nice (in terms of image quality). Looking forward to see the Bomb EVF in action.

Or.... seeing as how pics of the Red EVF design have been shown in rendered form for close to a year, and in prototype form for several months, how about:

"That new ARRI EVF looks similar in size to the RED design, just uglier."

:biggrin:
